“If Ukrainians want to be part of the European Union family, they must stop glorifying the Ukrainian nationalists presented as heroes, who collaborated with the Nazis and assisted them in the extermination of tens of thousands of Jewish families in Ukraine. One of the first measures taken by the Kiev municipality after the 2014 revolution was to rename the long avenue leading to the Babi Yar site from Moscow Avenue to Bandera Avenue, whose followers assisted the Nazis in the extermination of over 30,000 Jewish men, women and children in the Babi Yar ravine on September 29 and 30, 1941, when German troops accompanied by the Einsatzgruppen entered Kiev.”
